All Hanna Instruments meters are warranted for two years against de-
fects in workmanship and materials when used for their intended purpose
and maintained according to instructions.
Sensors and probes are warranted for a period of six months.
This warranty is limited to repair or replacement free of charge. Damages
due to accidents, misuse, tampering or lack of prescribed maintenance are
not covered.
If service is required, contact the dealer from whom you purchased the instru-
ment. If under warranty, report the model number, date of purchase, serial
number and the nature of the failure.
First obtain a Returned Goods Authorization number from the Customer Ser-
vice department, then return the instrument with the Authorization # included
along with shipment costs prepaid. If the repair is not covered by the war-
ranty, you will be notified of the charges.
When shipping any instrument, make sure it is properly packaged for com-
plete protection.
Remove the instrument from the packing material and exam-
ine it carefully to make sure that no damage has occurred
during shipping. If there is any noticeable damage, notify
your Dealer or the nearest Hanna Office.
Note: Save all packing materials until you are sure that the
instrument functions correctly. Any defective item must
be returned in the original packaging together with
1) LCD display
2) Rotary switch
3) OFF mode
4) Measurement mode
HI 8757
HI 8758
HI 8757 and HI 8758 are Hanna microprocessor-based, K-
type thermocouple thermometers specially dedicated to education.
These meters perform measurements either in °C (HI 8757) or
°F (HI 8758) in a wide range of temperature; readings are
linearized for increased accuracy, and resolution is automati-
cally switched from 0.1° to 1° for temperatures above 200°C
(400°F).
These thermometers are also provided with battery level
indication at start-up, and with the BEPS feature (Battery
Error Prevention System), which automatically switches the
instrument off when the battery is discharged to avoid
erroneous readings due to low battery level.
Each meter comes complete with a 9V battery and instruction
manual.
(*) Range may be limited by probe.

Hanna Instruments reserves the right to modify the design, construction
and appearance of its products without advance notice.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
Remove the battery cover on the back of the thermometer.
Unwrap the supplied 9V battery, connect it to the battery clip
and reattach the cover.
Connect the temperature probe to the connector on the top of
the meter.
To switch ON, turn the rotary knob to
the ºC or ºF position (depending on
the model).
The meter displays the percentage
indication of the remaining battery
life for a few seconds, and then enters
measurement mode.
If a temperature probe is plugged in, the meter displays the
measured temperature either in °C (HI 8757) or °F (HI
8758), automatically switching to the resolution suitable to
the temperature range; i.e. 0.1° up to 199.9°C (399.9°F),
or 1° above.
If no probe is plugged in, or if read-
ing is over-range, the display shows
flashing dashes.
If a measurement is slightly over the range of the meter
specifications, the display flashes the closest full-scale value.
To switch the thermometer OFF, turn
the rotary knob to OFF.
FACTORY RECALIBRATION
All Hanna thermometers have been accurately pre-calibrated
at the factory. It is generally recommended to have all
thermometers recalibrated at least once a year.
For an accurate annual recalibration, contact your dealer or
the nearest Hanna Service Center.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
The instrument is powered by a 9 V battery and is provided
with Battery Error Prevention System (BEPS), which turns the
unit off when a low battery signal is detected.
When the battery level is less than
10%, a warning symbol blinks on
the display to indicate a low battery
condition.
It is recommended to replace the battery as soon as the low
battery condition is detected.
Remove the cover on the meter's back by applying pressure in
the indicated direction. Unplug the rundown battery and
replace it with a new one.
Battery replacement must only take place in a nonhazardous
area using a 9V alkaline battery.
Recommendations for Users
Before using these products, make sure that they are entirely suitable for the environment in which
they are used.
Operation of these instruments in residential areas could cause unacceptable interference to radio and
TV equipment, requiring the operator to take all necessary steps to correct interference.
Any variation introduced by the user to the supplied equipment may degrade the instruments' EMC
performance.
To avoid electrical shock, do not use these instruments when voltage at the measurement surface
exceeds 24 Vac or 60 Vdc.
To avoid damage or burns, do not perform any measurement in microwave ovens.
